Evergreen completed this sophisticated deck installation in Encinitas, showcasing expertise in both structural engineering and contemporary outdoor design.  The project began with thorough site preparation and foundation work, installing code-compliant concrete footings designed to withstand Southern California’s soil conditions and seismic requirements. Our team engineered a robust framing system using pressure-treated lumber, with joists properly spaced and secured to ensure long-term structural integrity and load-bearing capacity.

The staircase construction required precise calculations for rise and run dimensions, meeting California building codes for outdoor stairs. Each step features double stringers for added support, with treads secured using hidden fasteners that eliminate visible hardware while preventing warping. The integrated stair skirting provides a finished appearance while protecting the structure underneath.

We installed a modern cable railing system with powder-coated steel posts and stainless steel cables, engineered to meet safety standards while maximizing sightlines. The tension in each cable was calibrated to precise specifications, ensuring both safety and aesthetic consistency. Post anchoring was executed with through-bolted connections to the deck frame for maximum stability.

The composite decking material was chosen for its durability in coastal climates, requiring minimal maintenance while resisting moisture, UV damage, and temperature fluctuations common to Encinitas. The warm wood-tone finish complements the natural California landscape while providing a slip-resistant surface.

The cable railing system creates an open, contemporary feel that enhances views and allows natural light flow, perfectly suited to Southern California’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
